Nothing exciting, got rid of the Audi today after a major mechanical failure and Audi not thinking anything wrong with a car 7 months out of warranty needing a repair (complete gearbox and diff) which was coming close to the value.

It is a Jeep ... Mrs PVR likes them and as she is the main user of that car I am fine with that. Ordered one earlier in the week and managed to get one which was just arriving at the docks with the spec we wanted.
Current:
911-50 Black - unique spec
X5M - 575 hp of fun in a V8
Abarth 595 Comp.
Golf Clipper - collectors item
Z4 3.0si Black Sapphire
VW ID.3

Previous:
Z4M Silver Grey - non flimper spec (gone to Bing)
Z4 3.0 Toledo

Ok nice.
We chopped the Q5 in for a Q3 2ltr turbo diesel auto with black pack styling and I have to say it's one of the nicest cars I've ever owned, I love it and it goes like greased weasel piss for an SUV?

Funnily we chopped our TT for a Q5 we drove a Q3 but it just wasn’t big enough. We love the Q5 i can’t believe how a 2.0l diesel can make the Q5 go as well as it does. The wife managed her same trick brought a car that looks like the s model with 2.0l oil burner!!

Great thread! Feels like old times!!

Good to see your still around! How is the Porsche treating you! Such a lovely colour, need to get a few more images of it up!

I'm very well thanks, still around on the forum every once and a while! Just bought a house so looking to get some funds together for... not sure yet (as usual)! Would love to go to the dark side but bought a Boxster S before Christmas but it ended up being a lemon and bit of a bad experience. Would like to get into another Z4M or maybe a Cayman S. The allure of a 996 C4S or a 997 Cs is tempting but might be the next one need something that will not break the bank too much as the house needs some work! :rofl:

Shame about the dodgy Boxster, you know you'll end up with some sort of Porsche eventually, it's in your blood Tom.
There you go, picture needs a bit of Pezza's photoshop magic really.
I'm still loving it thanks....
